Default Fastest ls stock shortblock

I have had quite a few people ask me to make more of a build thread instead of what I have posted so far. My car had previously been 5.73 at 125(1/8 mile) with a 408 motor and was taken apart shortly afterward for the winter time. Then it ended up on the back burner while I was busy at the shop with customer cars. After seeing several stock motor cars running good I thought I would join the party and try to go for the stock motor record.

About two months ago I took the car to the track on pump gas and 10 psi and went 6.41@110 on its third pass.

http://www.vimeo.com/7196181

The next couple weeks we fight with taking the car to tracks that are 2 or so hours away and only get 2-3 passes out of a full day. We are collecting data and making changes. We retuned the car for e-85 fuel and took it to the track on 12 psi and went 9.61@141 with a 6.22@113 in the 1/8. At this point I am on a 29.5 tire, leaving on 15 psi, not spinning at all.


We had a track day coming up that was supposed to be nice weather, and the track prepped decent due to a big truck event. We put the car on the dyno the night before with plans on leaning on it a bit. The car made 796 rwhp through the locked 4l80e on 15 psi. We also mounted a set of 325-50 radials in hopes that the 28'' tall tire would help the 60'. Well we were right! The second pass off the trailor the car went a 1.43 60', 5.96 1/8 @118, and a 9.304 @146.59!!

This is hardly impressive in comparison to some of the cars on this site, but I thought it was good considering the parts it was done on.

It is a bone stock shortblock with bone stock 317 heads, the only aftermarket parts being cam, valve springs, pushrods, and head studs. 3300 lb raceweight, s400-80mm turbo, Jgs 44mm wastegate, Tial 50mm bov, 4l80e transmission, 3.50 gear. Stock pcm, 2 walbros, 80lb injectors, #10 feed, and return. All done on $1.99 fuel. Here are a few pics of the turbo kit that is now up for sale.

What really gets to people is the fact the motor has nothing but 12pt arp bolts on it. People are like "your trying to tell me you have more in external bolts then the engine itself ?"

Antony's car is very impressive for what it is. Im glad I had the opportunity to lend my fantastic video skills for him throughout this year. I love when we're at the track and get the " you gotta be kidding me " looks when people are told its a cam only motor . Looking forward to next year
